How to get Choir of One: an A rank in Encore
Choir of One drops from Encore, the Exotic mission of Episode: Echoes. Encore now sits in Pinnacle Ops in the Portal.
- Open Encore in Pinnacle Ops. The mission takes you into the core of Nessus, held by the Vex.
- Set the difficulty and modifiers. Pick a setup that lets your score reach an A rank.
- Clear the mission. Fight through the Vex structures to the end of the run.
- Finish with an A rank. Choir of One drops on your 1st A-rank clear from the Portal.
- Run it again if it did not drop. Raise the score with more modifiers and clear it once more.
| Encore clear with an A rank | What it unlocks |
|---|---|
| 1st clear | Choir of One with Deepsight, so its pattern unlocks |
| Next clears | The 3 catalyst refits, 1 at a time |
| Next clears |  Command Frame II, III and IV for crafting |
A Pro can also clear Encore on your account and hand you the rifle.
Choir of One, cleared for you
A PRO clears Encore with an A rank on your account. The Command Frame levels and the 3 refits are options on the rifle page.
Choir of One catalysts: 3 refits
Choir of One has 3 catalyst refits. Each A-rank clear after the 1st unlocks another refit or Command Frame level.
Subsistence. Defeating targets partially reloads the magazine from reserves.
Destabilizing Rounds. A defeated target releases a Void burst that makes nearby targets volatile.
Onslaught. Final blows raise the rate of fire.
The Edge of Fate removed the old catalyst quests. Encore clears now carry every upgrade.
Choir of One is craftable. Reshape it to slot a refit you have unlocked.
For the rest, the exotic catalyst list explains where each catalyst comes from.

What Choir of One does: Command Frame and Fanatical Lance
Choir of One is an Exotic Void auto rifle that uses Special ammo.
- Command Frame (intrinsic). It fires long-range, heavy-caliber rounds at a lower rate of fire. Precision damage rises while you aim down sights.
Fanatical Lance. Rapid final blows make targets explode into a pool of radiolarian fluid. Hip fire launches several projectiles in a slower spread, and they detonate on impact.
The exotic weapon tier list ranks this rifle against the other Exotics.
Encore in Monument of Triumph (2026)
Encore stayed in Pinnacle Ops through Update 9.7.0, which brought Monument of Triumph on 9 June 2026. The A-rank rule still decides the drop.
Zero Hour drops another craftable Exotic rifle. Our Outbreak Perfected guide covers that mission.
